What are four ways for asexual reproduction to occur? Explain how each one occurs.
1.Binary Fission- one parent splits into two
2. budding- one parent makes buds, then the buds (clones) fall off and grow to an adult
3. Spores-comes from one parent and can survive long periods of harsh environment
4. vegetative- it can grow on its own by producing roots, leaves, and stems

Name three examples of a trait that can be passed on
a. ____________________________________________
b. ____________________________________________
c. ____________________________________________
Circle true or false.
TRUE / FALSE : A gene controls a trait, it has a set of information that determines
what kind of traits will be passed on
The set of instructions that determines the kind of trait that will be passed on are
found in the c______________________
The _________________________________ can also be found in what part of the cell?
_________________________________________________. This is where we store our genetic
information (DNA) as well.
Circle true or false.
TRUE/ FALSE : When an organisms reproduces asexually only 50% of its genetic
information is being passed on the offspring.
TRUE / FALSE : When an organisms reproduces sexually 100% of its genetic
information is being passed on the offspring.
When an organism develops tiny buds, the buds continue to grow until it forms new
full-size genetically identical organism. This is called _______________________. It is an
example of _____________________________ reproduction.
